1. Medical Stuff:

• Two Tuesdays of PT.
• Five times on the treadmill.
• One echocardiogram.
• My first mammogram.
• One shrink appointment.

1. Medical Stuff:

• One PT sesh. I got to teach a PT student about EDS. Makes me happy.
• Two days of Home Rehab.
• My thoracic is flared up. Busted out my heating pad and massager machine. My kid is getting heavier ; )

1. Medical Stuff:

• Prolo on Monday. Dr. C thinks things got stretched out from labor, and I have since sprained my hip and both SI joints. Prolo in the hip capsule, both SI joints, and groin.
• 1 Day of PT. OMT only since it was the day after prolotherapy and I felt it was best to give it a chance to work.
• Lots of time on my trusty heating pad this week.
• 1 shrink visit. Starting to taper one of my meds. Fingers crossed.
• 1 Infusion. Had to wait to start while they called my docs since my blood pressure was too low. They determined I was okay enough to do the infusion and thankfully did not have to go anywhere.

1. Medical Stuff:

• One day of PT. Because this lower back/hip stuff thinks it can stick around, it was time to get fitted for a soft brace. I need the stability and I finally gave in. Hopefully it will be temporary until I can get stronger and then throw it an drawer. In the meantime, I have a big, black soft brace holding my tummy in. I guess that’s not terrible.

1. Medical Stuff:

• Two sessions of PT. Still trying to get my lower back stronger and the pain under control. Labor did a number.
• Lots of walking in the neighborhood with my home-dawggggg, Gru Gru. I keep trying to add more strengthening and stretching at home but I have not been super successful. It’s a new week!
